Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice about 4–6 lemons
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 4 cups cold water
- 1 cup half-and-half or whole milk
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Dissolve Sugar: In a pitcher, combine the granulated sugar and 1 cup of water. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved to make a simple syrup.
- Add Lemon Juice: Stir in the fresh lemon juice.
- Mix: Add the remaining 3 cups of cold water and stir well.
- Add Creaminess: Slowly stir in the half-and-half or whole milk until combined.
- Serve: Pour over ice cubes and serve immediately. Stir before serving as the mixture may separate slightly.
Notes
- Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor.
- Adjust sugar quantity to taste, especially if lemons are very tart.
- Half-and-half provides a richer creaminess, but whole milk works for a lighter option.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute with coconut milk or almond milk.
